on americanism

red, white and blue
the pride of our land
torn, ripped and burned
all by our own hand

patriotism is one thing
capitalism is another
you let the stakes ride
i won't run and hide

how do you stand
on your own two feet
when your life exemplifies
the standard for defeat

the colors that form a rainbow
are beautiful to the eyes
but the colors of our flag
will lead to our demise

unfortunate circumstances happen
casualties for the sake of a color scheme
we chose those consequences proud
that's why I scream so loud

there are meanings behind the tone
maybe you can't see what's dead
red, white and blue
purity between sorrow and bloodshed
